At a special showing.

Man, that was some intense shit.

My girl (who was raised roman catholic ) cried through the WHOLE thing.

Do NOT take your kids to see that movie. All I have to say.

I'm not really sure I want to see that movie. It seems a little too intense for me. I prefer comedies or something.

Yeah, I think he meant according to the scriptures, which is all anyone can go on for "accuracy." The Jews are all upset about the failure to sugar coat it.

Tell that to the Bible belt in the USA. They keep passing laws based on what they think he would have said. I wonder what Jesus would think of the fanatics and extreme right. Something tells me they are not what he had in mind. Then again, I'm not a very good Catholic....

thats what I mean..........Jesus has NO say in things..........but these fanatical ppl do, who think they speak for what Jesus wanted or desired.....

I personally think Jesus would be horrified to see what his message has been twisted into, not to mention the outright idolatry of him.

May I ask how much of the Bible you have read? I love idiots who think they know more about Christianity than those who have studied it all their lives. Anyway, I am off to see the movie tommorow.

I've never understood the American flavor of Christianity. Jesus was all about giving to the poor, stopping the dance around the golden calf, sharing not accumulating wealth - whereas Americans... oh well...

Since you're such an expert, maybe you can help me out with some secular references to Jesus - either during his supposed lifetime or within 25 or 30 years of his supposed death.

Sure.

Actually, I am not an expert, but my point is that he is undoubtly not either (yet like many fanatical liberals, he acts as if he is). Regardless though, my family is very religious, and when I hear crap (either online or in person) about Christinaity, that I am unsure of, I usually go back to them for reference. They usually take the time to show me from where in the Bible the conclusion to the answer is made.

I've take University Courses on it, Odin88........many classes on comparative religions etc so I understand the formation of religion, starting from myth.

Just to throw it out to you, Jesus was probably fuming at the local power structures as he most likely was an Essene, and if you don't know what that is, I'm not going to explain it to you. He was seen as a threat, but so were many others of the day. And around Passover time, that would have been a major no-no. Just a few short years before he was crucified in Jerusalem, there were riots that broke out in Jerusalem over Passover time, and many ppl were slaughtered at the hands of the Romans, who restored order thru brutality.

Caiphas, and the rest of the Sanhedrin, didn't want a repeat of this. It was and still is all about power, order, and who rules. They were not going to have a repeat mess of a mass slaughter, so anyone who was going to foment trouble would be executed. All it took was Caiphas and the Sanhedrin telling Pilate this, and I'm quite sure it took Pilate a mere few seconds to order yet another execution. But Jesus was popular, so they got him at night...........and then put him to death as yet another warning in a long line of warnings to the citizens that "this is what you get when you go against the power."

He was a threat to order, and was put to death; how his myth survived, endured, and took on what it is today is a whole different story. You're not talking to someone who simply spouts off rhetoric, Odin.

I'd love to see some non-biblical references to Jesus.

They must be authentic, undisputed and made within 50 years of his supposed death.

I don't believe Jesus ever existed and am still waiting for someone to show me some convincing evidence.

And what do you fuckers want answered anyway? I admit I am not an expert in the field of religion, but my point is that people who attack Christian conservatives as not following their own faith, yet being totally ignorant to the faith anyway are always funny.

Joe, Tacitus and Plinus, both Roman historians, documented that Jesus did exist in the 1st century. He was an actual historical figure who existed as you and I do. However, the nonsense, exaggerations, embellishments, and myth-making then took hold. For instance, the virgin birth...........attributed to Jesus well after his death, because the leader of a great religion is often seen born of a miraculous nature, can work miracles, etc.............a virgin birth was also attributed to Buddha as he was "born from the SIDE of his mother."

In fact, Christianity would never have taken hold and would have died off with a wimper if it were not for Paul, who travelled extensively and evangelized Christ. It would have remained a local religion and petered out, and who knows what the world would be worshipping today........perhaps even remained somewhat pagan as it was in Roman times.

Please tell us all, HOW exactly YOU know what happened? Were you there?
No, it was already established in this thread that what I meant was it was accurate to what it says in the bible.

But I only know this because my girl is very knowledgable about it. I did'nt have a clue.

Just to throw it out to you, Jesus was probably fuming at the local power structures as he most likely was an Essene, and if you don't know what that is, I'm not going to explain it to you. He was seen as a threat, but so were many others of the day. And around Passover time, that would have been a major no-no. Just a few short years before he was crucified in Jerusalem, there were riots that broke out in Jerusalem over Passover time, and many ppl were slaughtered at the hands of the Romans, who restored order thru brutality.

Caiphas, and the rest of the Sanhedrin, didn't want a repeat of this. It was and still is all about power, order, and who rules. They were not going to have a repeat mess of a mass slaughter, so anyone who was going to foment trouble would be executed. All it took was Caiphas and the Sanhedrin telling Pilate this, and I'm quite sure it took Pilate a mere few seconds to order yet another execution. But Jesus was popular, so they got him at night...........and then put him to death as yet another warning in a long line of warnings to the citizens that "this is what you get when you go against the power."

He was a threat to order, and was put to death; how his myth survived, endured, and took on what it is today is a whole different story. You're not talking to someone who simply spouts off rhetoric, Odin.
I stand corrected if you know what you are talking about (I have been involved in a number of discussions with liberal Uni friends who seemed to pick up on the trend), but I still fail to see your original point. I understand that Jesus was a threat to the traditional powers that be, especially since most Jews of the time were expecting a savior to come to their aid military type manner. Jesus was not that, and in fact he did convey a contrary message, and he was subsequently put to death. However, the Bible does stress order, morals, etc throughout and unlike some seem to believe, being a Christian does not mean being a liberal.

Although someone has already answered it, I will do my best to add to it. I am pretty certain that if there is anything to add, I will be able to find it out.
